Katherine sits in the top third of Northern Territory for solar uptake, ranking 12th in the state out of 46 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset. Growth has been strong, with 30 new systems installed in the past 12 months — a 76% increase on the previous year, making Katherine one of Northern Territory's faster-growing solar postcodes.
Collectively, Katherine's 400 solar systems avoid an estimated 3,128 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 1,490 cars from the road. This is estimated using Northern Territory's average grid emissions intensity of 640 gCO₂/kWh, sourced from OpenElectricity, applied to an average system size of 9kW.
